1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The anti-inflammatory and antianemic activities of Angelica sinensis polysaccharide (ASP) isolated from roots of Angelica sinensis (AS) was investigated in a complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced arthritic rat model. It was observed that serum iron (SI) and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) levels were elevated after 4-week oral administration of ASP. Red blood cell (RBC) count and hemoglobin (Hb) concentrations were ameliorated as well. Moreover, inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-a were decreased strikingly in CFA-induced arthritic rats after treatment of ASP. Evidence also showed that ASP strongly inhibited hepcidin expression through the Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK2/STAT3) pathway. Furthermore, ASP exhibited reduced primary and secondary lesions in adjuvant arthritis, attenuating synovitis and inflammatory joint damage. Data presented in this article collectively indicated that ASP significantly decreased proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-a, IL-6), which might play a crucial role in the CFA-induced arthritic rats, and had a therapeutic effect on adjuvant arthritis in rats. Results of Western blot analysis indicated that ASP inhibited the activation of IL-6/JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway in the CFA-induced arthritic rats.
